Linköping HC
The biggest change at the club will be new management as Tommy Jonsson comes into replace Dan Tangnes, who left at the end of last season. However, the club continues is tradition of relying on North American firepower, beating teams by simply outscoring them.
They have retained reliable points getter, Andrew Gordon but also have a number of Olympians in the squad with Canadian assistant captain, Derek Roy , and American blueliner, Chad Billins staying at the club.
But all the talk around the league is the return of American Olympian and top SHL goal scorer, Broc Little (pictured above). Whilst at 175 cm he is one of the shortest players in the SHL, he will be looking to repeat his 1.00 Point Per Game average and/or being top scorer in the league. Linköping know a good thing when they see it and have managed to sign him on a three year contact.
One of the few players shorter than Little is his new teammate, Joe Whitney. The American is only 163cm tall but in seven years in the AHL has amassed 311 points in 450 games so will be looking to make a big impact in the SHL.
